St. Augustine South Government Primary School held in January, 'It's Reading Month' . The 30 day activities pushed the slogan "Today a Reader...Tomorrow a Leader."

Teaching staff at the primary school encouraged students to read and reminded parents to take their children to a library or local bookstore to increase the students' literacy interest. ​

The reading month culminated with a poetry competition and guest celebrity readers, Daren Ganga, Trinidad and Tobago Cricketer & Sport Ambassador and Samantha John, CTV News Anchor . The children were very enthusiastic about the stories read to them.

​Baby Babble wants to congratulate Miss Carlene Duncan, Principal and the staff at St. Augustine South Government Primary School for the tremendous month of reading. ​
